My regulars know better, but Newer Meat occasionally tries variations of the "I'm having a bad (low money) night" routine, preying on both potential sympathy and wallet.
It's almost always just a ploy. And I'm there to be seduced, not to be anyone's emotional backboard.
"I'm sorry, hottie. Why don't you stop back when you're in a better mood" usually does the trick (either immediately or later).
I 'train' dancers by giving them an extra tip to greet me with a seductive LD and hug upon setting up camp.
As always, YMMV.
Happy hunting, DG
ROFL. My favorite is when the tampon string and toilet paper discussion gets started. Now THAT turns me on and makes me want to spend money in the VIP ...
